Nicotinamide n-methyltransferase inhibitor synergizes with sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor to protect renal tubular epithelium in experimental models of type 2 diabetes mellitus.

J Diabetes Complications

January 2025

Department of Pathology, School of Basic Medical Sciences, Fudan University, 138 Yixueyuan Road, Shanghai 200032, China. Electronic address:

Aims: We aim to explore the potential of nicotinamide n-methyltransferase (NNMT) as a sensitive marker of renal tubular injury and the possibility of an NNMT inhibitor to combine with sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor to protect proximal tubular epithelium in vivo and in vitro model of Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), respectively.

Methods: In vivo, immunohistochemical staining, Masson's trichrome staining and Sirius red staining were used to observe the changes of NNMT expression, renal tubular injury and interstitial fibrosis in renal tissue from the db/db mice. Bioinformatic analysis was also conducted to broaden the range of data validation.

Background: Diabetes-associated dry eye syndrome (DMDES) affects 20-54 % of diabetes, leading to ocular irritation and blurry vision. Decreased conjunctival goblet cell mucus secretion is one of the major pathological processes of DMDES. This study aims to investigate the mechanism of mucus granule maturation and secretion disturbance in DMDES.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the positive effects on anti-oxidation, anti-inflammation, and microbial composition optimization of diabetic mice using tussah (Antheraea pernyi) silk fibroin peptides (TSFP), providing the theoretical foundation for making the use of silk resources of A. pernyi and incorporating as a supplement into the hypoglycemic foods.

Method: The animal model of diabetes was established successfully.

Background: Mitochondria-driven oxidative/redox stress and inflammation play a major role in chronic kidney disease (CKD) pathophysiology. Compounds targeting mitochondrial metabolism may improve mitochondrial function, inflammation, and redox stress; however, there is limited evidence of their efficacy in CKD.

Methods: We conducted a pilot randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover trial comparing the effects of 1200 mg/day of coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) or 1000 mg/day of nicotinamide riboside (NR) supplementation to placebo in 25 people with moderate-to-severe CKD (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] <60mL/min/1.

Inflammation and Occlusive Retinal Vasculitis Post Faricimab.

JAMA Ophthalmol

January 2025

Truhlsen Eye Center, Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences, University of Nebraska Medical Center, Omaha.

Importance: Randomized clinical trials have shown the safety and efficacy of faricimab as a novel vascular endothelial growth factor and angiopoietin-2 inhibitor in the treatment of neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) and macular edema of various etiologies. However, more rare adverse events may not be considered in clinical trials.

Objective: To describe 3 eyes that developed irreversible vision loss following initial mild intraocular inflammation (IOI) to faricimab.
